In this new build I don't want to haul buckets of ro/di water up from the cellar to fill ATO container. I want to pump it up.
I have a Tunze Osmolator connected now to pump water into the tank as needed.
I saw a video by BRS on how to connect a water valve 8555.200(sold by them). I am interested in using this solenoid but I want peoples input first. Good idea??? What do others use to pump up ro/di to the display tank??? Looking to do this right the first time and first and for most is reliability. No floods or the wife will toss me and the tank out the front door!!
So, what say you?;Happy

Hey landlubber...it was strongly recommended that I not go this route. It was suggested that I control whatever method I choose MANUALLY!
BRS has a video out about this and if I'm not wrong it is on the soleniod page on their website.
Hope this helps.

I appreciate the response.
BRS has mentioned them a couple of times recently which got me thinking about it. they use many flood protection safeguards along with the solenoid as well though.
